They (N & S) have managed their first civilised meetings, and I think they are even likely to agree an end to the war if they haven't already, which hasn't been raging for years. KP is the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea (IIRC), the ISO standard used for domain names (Except UK) is usually politically sensitive (At least for when it was written) and they are clearly both the real Korea. Anyway the attacks all come from the South, however I don't think this necessarily indicated that the North is more enlightened. -- Want to learn about Linux? Get it installed?
